Dave, et al Ooooooh dontchya hate when that happens. But nothing last forever, especially in cyberspace. Just a tip from your paranoid ol Uncle Lar. Save or print on-line pictures & info you think you might need later for reference.
The Old School Cycles site does indeed seem to have disappeared, but I think I have the Int picture from that site. Were there other similar sites that you checked that are no longer there? I can't remember any right at the moment that had Int pics, but it is a bit early in the day for me to remember anything.
Also see Chuck's Velo Rendezvous archive photos from the 2003 event.
Pic at the bottom of page 1 of the photos is Chris Cleveland's 58 Int.

Also three pics from Dales Cirque swap & show photos of Paul Lee's chrome &
blue Int Clubman. I think Paul added the red fenders.

I have also saved pics from ebay auctions of Carlton Ints, and any other bikes/pics I've stumbled across if you would like them. Some are original paint, some are repaints. Some are nice, some are hideous. Hilary Stone did a thing on the Int a few years back for his Design Classics series in Cycling Plus. And there was a blurb in an old BuyCycling magazine about a 63 Int. I have both articles scanned and can send them to you. Those two files are a bit large though.
Does that sound a bit obsessive? Yeah, well, could be worse. If the cops ever confiscate my puter looking for evidence, they're going to be VERY disappointed.
